Bio
I was born in 1973 in a small town in the middle of Holland, not coincidentally the green heart of the Netherlands.
From early on my parents took me on some far away travels, including a year abroad as a 5-year old in the Amazon jungle of Surinam, which probably ignited my love for Mother Nature and all it´s beauty and ugliness.
Since my return trip to Surinam in 1988 my interest for photography grew and especially the interaction between humans and the planet we live on and the influence we have on it.
On that first journey I started photographing and exploring things and places which were left behind by us and nature embraced (again).
After that my camera came with me on many journeys around the world including amazing places like Argentina, Chile, Brazil, Southwest US, many countries in Africa and ofcourse around Europe.
It was a matter of time before I wanted to move abroad and focus on photography and my interest in abandoned structures and landscapes started by settling in Zaragoza in the Northern part of Spain. After 2 years exploring the province of Aragon and all its landscapes, abandoned villages and many other trips around Spain we moved to Madrid.
A year later we took a big leap to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, where the amazing beauty of South East Asia is now at my doorstep.
